The Shadowbolts OOC

[Scythe]

Dark, sinister, notorious. We are back. Brace yourselves.

[colour=#000000] Why Shadowbolts?[/colour]

[colour=#000000]We are a mysterious and elusive phenomenon, impossible to catch, easy to get stunned by, only known from the stories that came with Nightmare Moons attempt to coup Equestria.[/colour]

[colour=#000000]Coordinated, tame, teamworking, that is what those wimps [/colour][colour=#0000cd]Wonderbolts [/colour][colour=#000000]are - cooler, faster, extremer, that defines us. [/colour][colour=#000000]The Wonderbolts might be the most famous flying team, but we, the [/colour][colour=#4b0082]Shadowbolts[/colour][colour=#000000], are the most notorious. [/colour]

[colour=#000000]You want to be one of us? You think you have what it needs to become a Shadowbolt? Come to us! Fly with us! And become part of this phenomenon - that is, if you survive the ride.[/colour]

[colour=#000000] Glimpse of a flightshow[/colour]

[colour=#000000]Darkness and fog everywhere. The only light you see is the huge floodlight searching the sky for them, waiting for the moment they appear through a thunderstorm, tied up and blindfolded in their attempt to free themselves before they hit the ground.[/colour]

[colour=#000000]How to join the Shadowbolts[/colour]

[colour=#000000]To join us all you need is a character whose occupation is set to Shadowbolt. Dependant on the [/colour][colour=#000000]status of the application [/colour][colour=#000000]of the character who you want to become a Shadowbolt there are different ways[/colour][colour=#000000].[/colour]

1. [colour=#006400]Not yet approved characters: [/colour]
   [colour=#000000]You just need to set the occupation to Shadowbolt when you create your OC, no further steps necessary. You don't need to contact me or Tales and you don't need to ask anyone if you can make a Shadowbolt, you just do it. That doesn't mean we won't be happy about a message though.[/colour]
   
2. [colour=#b22222]Already approved characters: [/colour]
   [colour=#000000]If your character is [/colour][colour=#000000]already [/colour][colour=#000000]approved and you want him/her to become a Shadowbolt you need to edit the application and let the helpstaff reapprove it. This can be especially aggravating if your character had an occupation very different from an acrobatic flying group like the Shadowbolts. [/colour][colour=#000000]Then y[/colour][colour=#000000]ou probably need to rewrite the history too.[/colour]
   
3. [colour=#daa520]Special Case for already approved characters: [/colour]
   [colour=#000000]If your character is already in another acrobatic flying group like the Wonderbolts or Aeroblades and you want to switch your team, then you can edit the App without letting the helpstaff reapprove it, since it's considered [/colour][colour=#000000]only [/colour][colour=#000000]a minor change.[/colour]

[colour=#000000]Our team[/colour]

[colour=#000000]Our team consists out of six starters and six reserves. If you hear Shadowbolts you probably think of the starters, but that doesn't mean the reservists are just training behind the scenes. There are always smaller shows in which they can perform or if a starter is injured or unaviable for performance they can jump in.[/colour]

(For RPing purposes this makes no difference, it's just a formality for the application process!)

This Thread serves as organizing tool for us. We will list our members and events here and answer question that might arise. The revival of the Shadowbolts has been talked through with the helpstaff and our private conversation about it is always surveillanced by Davroth who happens to be a member of the Shadowbolts.
